What we do

Chimney Repair and Masonry in Greater Boston

A chimney fails from the top down: the cap goes first, then water gets into the joints, then the brick. We handle every stage — from a new stainless cap to a full rebuild above the roofline — and tell you plainly which one your chimney actually needs.

Chimney cap installation

Stops rain, snow and animals from entering the flue.

Repointing

Fresh mortar in the joints before water reaches the brick.

Rebuild

Crown or full rebuild when the masonry is past repair.

Sealant & waterproofing

Breathable sealer that keeps water out of the brick.

Photo inspection

We photograph the crown, cap and joints from the roof.

Leak diagnosis

We find whether the water is the chimney or the flashing.

Why it matters in Massachusetts

New England chimneys go through dozens of freeze-thaw cycles every winter. Water soaks into the mortar by day, freezes at night and pushes the joints apart. Left alone, a small repointing job becomes a full rebuild in a few seasons.

FAQ

Chimney Services — questions

How do I know my chimney needs work?

White staining on the brick, crumbling mortar, loose pieces in the fireplace, a damp patch on the ceiling near the chimney, or no cap on top. Any of those is worth a free inspection.

Is the chimney inspection free?

Yes. You get photos from roof level and a written quote if work is needed. No charge, no obligation.

How often should a chimney be inspected?

Once a year, ideally in the fall before the heating season.

Do you sweep chimneys?

Our work is the exterior masonry, cap and waterproofing. For flue sweeping and fireplace service we can point you to a certified sweep.

Can you work in winter?

Caps and minor repairs, yes. Mortar and masonry need temperatures above roughly 40°F, so rebuilds and repointing are scheduled for the warmer months.
